    Starting Out

    Hi cleo, I feel your pain. You are doing well with the tapering, are you drinking lots of water too? You need to stay hydrated, also as others say take supplements.
    Keep posting and good luck x

      Starting Out

      Thanks guys, yes drinking lots of water also herbal teas, blends good for calming and detoxing. Also taking multivitamin, B-mega strength, prescription vitamin d and folate, liver detox with milk thistle, and nerve control with zyziphus(?spelling) which was recommended at a chemist and has helped me sleep a little bit better I think. Also 1.25mg valium and my antidpressant in the morning. Eating lots of healthy food, eggs, fruits, veg, lots of green stuff, yoghurt, cod liver oil (yuk) milk with vitamin d, meat and fish etc. Oh and plenty of chocolate for the endorphins of course

      So far Day 1- 13 drinks, Day 2-9 Day 3 felt awful so went back up and had 12, Day 4-10, Day 5- 8. Today is Day 6 planning to go back to 6-7 depending how I am feeling but it is morning here and I am already very shaky

        Hello Cleo, I am just OK. Its the weekend and I am drinking far to much!!! Went to a wedding yesterday, drank a doz beers and a couple of glasses of wine. Still, it is better than passing out every night of the week! How did u go today with your AL reduction?? :l:l:l

          Thankyou boozer glad you are ok at least dont be too hard on yourself ((hugs))
          And thankyou for asking in Qld it is almost 9, yesterday had 8? drinks, today have so far had about 6..
          Actually shakes were not so bad today in afternoon though morning was as usual, and I managed to wait till 5 rather than 3 for the first one so that was good. but now feeling the depression creeping in, reading forums to try and remind myself why I need to do this, hoping I can keep it down to only one more and keep going down in next few days to my first Al Free Day. I do want to do this and know I need to. :l
